Nestled amongst the charm and magic of Cork City is one of Cork’s most exclusive properties.
The newly redesigned Imperial Hotel with Escape Salon and Spa is a magical hotel that merges the traditional and the contemporary to create an environment with a warm and welcoming personality.

The Imperial is ideally located in the premier shopping and commercial district of the city, near Cork’s finest restaurants and pubs, an ideal base for a short weekend city break, or as focal point from where to tour the scenic South West of Ireland.

The Imperial Hotel remains one of Corks favourite social and business meeting places, a home away from home for a business traveller, a haven from the hustle and bustle of busy life for those seeking relaxation and a favourite spot for Corkonians to meet for a coffee and lunch on weekends. Also, the introduction of Ireland’s first Lifestyle Salon and Spa gives a new dimension to the hotel. Escape, Ireland’s first Aveda Lifestyle Salon and Spa is an oasis of calm in the heart of the city

Rooms: 130.

Location

Breakfast delivered to the room in error. When reception was contacted - hotel took the food away... We were assuming this would have been dumped and not reserved -... so would have been a nice touch to be told to keep it. Also towels were not replaced with asked...
